Snaps for originality, and organizational skills! You've taken Patrick's meditation on the undone to a new level... very funny.

I'd be happy to accompany you on a tour of the Everglades, but really, it's a vast sea of grass, an amazing sight, but I'm not sure how it's toured. I think it's essentially an airboat ride with an alligator sighting or two. My specialty is tours of the local malls and bistros.

#17 actually surprised me, knowing a little bit about where you are, but then I reminded myself that I was never at the major tourist attraction in my own (oriignal) home town and that I avoid major sites where I now live like the plague!

Bikram yoga has given me new life I found your blog to be greatly interesting,This is very nice blog I am waiting for your next blog post, Yoga is usually taught as a way to achieve physical and mental fitness .
